3. some tools you need to play with CWM flashable zips, you can simply place your apks, ringtones and even kernels, modems into zip file or delete the files/apks that you don't need before you flash.

WinRAR it's what i use to modify flashable zips before flashing, it is a very handy tool. as simple as drag & drop.

7-zip it's also a very handy tool, simular to winrar. and it is the only tool that you can extract offcial ROMs made by intratech @xda

Samsung CDMA driver 64 bit (USB driver), it is for windows 64bit version and works on windows 7 very well as i'm using it almost everyday. download here

Odin 1.85, for flashing official ROM, it can only flash files in .tar format, if you are on windows 7 64bit, don't forget to run it as administrator (right click your mouse and click on "run as administrator), other wise it may not work properly. download here

4. how to make your own battery % over UOT kitchen:

it's actually as simple as 123 as long as you know what to do, please follow below steps.

1) download your prefered ROM zip file

2) open the zip file by using WinRAR

3) open system/ app and find systemUI.apk, drag it out to desktop

I have checked out a few threads at xda-developers.com about getting SIP to work on the Galaxy S2 and the general

consensus is to use CSipSimple.apk. The current method posted at How To Add Native SIP seems to have some mic problems. Some users have suggested using CSIPSimple. Therefore, I have included it below for users to test.

I'm posting also here my tests, as I reckon this is the right place (sorry for posting in the other thread).

Finally I could do a proper test with the Gtalk AV (been off battery all day long). Here are my test results:

1. If I call someone, it all works fine

2. If someone calls me, I don't even get the incoming call message, and the call gets cancelled, in the starting conversation window (the other user) you can see "Cibeles (me) cancelled call" after 2-3 secs, not even a chance to do anything else.

Hope this help

Gary, thanks very much for your hard work, I've just flashed your ROM and restored everything and it's working great. One thing to note is I initially factory restored from within settings and the phone got stuck on the Samsung screen (with yellow triangle) on rebooting. I got it fixed by flashing another kernel through odin.

Is it possible to have battery % instead of icon in this ROM? That's the only feature I'm missing

Before I was running modaco Gr5 android 2.3.4 and when I connected my USB I could read messages like "conecting USB" and "USB connected" then I pulled down notification bar and tapped on "USB connected" and got the screen with the green android and could tap on button "Connect USB storage".

Now I get something like "Connecting MTP" and "MTP connected" when I tap there, I get nothing, then I need to go to Settings, Wireless connections, USB and then connect USB storage.

When I flash my device with your ROM I double erase every cache (double check on Davlik) and it all works ok, but I get this issue...

For the record, I'm using Fedora 14 on my laptop.

Just tried this and all works ok - am using Windows 7.

I have Ubuntu installed, but cannot switch to it now as I am working on XWJK3 release.

Also tried Win7 and happens the same, will also use your new ROM when you've got it, will that include Gtalk AV too?

I've modified last post to include an screenshot.

Same thing on with my iMac...

When I flash your ROM I wipe all caches twice and then flash, nothing else, am I missing something important? Funny cause this is the only weird issue I'm experiencing...

Sorry to bother with this, but it was a very useful tweak to be able to connect / disconnect from the notification bar, no need to go to settings menu.

Also adding an screenshot from the moment it gets connected.

For the record, when I plug it (on my Fedora) my laptop sees the mobile, actually 3 items as a Samsung device, and thows an error stating that my OS is unable to lock the device. When you explore the folders in Linux, you see all of them empty. You've got to go to settings --> wireless connections --> USB --> connect USB storage to actually see only 2 devices (sd internal and external) as mass storage devices and when you can actually use it.

OK...just tried on my netbook which is running Ubuntu and I still get USB Connected with a Connect USB Storage button. Everything works ok on my end. No one else has mentioned this. Will look into it when I have some more time.

After many flashes, wipes before and after flashing, as I was tired, one of the times, when prompted to set up google account (just when mobile boots for the first time) I've skipped it and with no account configured, I plugged my USB and it all worked.

Done this again, but configuring the account (then it says maintain your device backed up with google) and I did it, when finished, I even got my wallpaper back as well as the MTP thing.

So, I did it again skipping the google account thing. It all worked back. So I've configured my account after my mobile has booted up, by using Settings --> accounts (then you're not prompted to back up your data from google) and it is working now... weird.

actully, if you connect your phone to computer without going into setting > wireless and network > USB utilities > connect storage to PC, you'll always get this MTP thing. because there is a files called MtpApplication.apk in system/app folder. if you prefer not to use it, you can simply delete it then reboot. then next time when you connect your phone to computer, it won't happen again. i guess Gr5 has already deleted this file in the ROM.
